Chapter 523: Invitation

readx;?ā€œ What you said is so mysterious, it turns out that this is it! ā€

Duchamp looked at the building in front of him and laughed. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

This is the Seven Stones Exchange. Today is Tuesday, the day when the Qiyao Stone opens for trading.

"Someone brought me here a few days ago to open my eyes, and the Qiyao Stone in it is indeed of good quality."

Kulo snorted, "Haven't you seen anything else besides the Qiyao Stone Mine?" ā€

"What else?" Duchamp looked at Kuro in surprise.

Kulo didn't answer, lowered his voice and said, "We can't go in together, there are too many people who know me." We'll see you at the auction in a moment. With that, he deftly jumped out of the car and left.

Duchamp drove a little further, swaggering to stop in front of the exchange and head up the steps.

At this moment, he heard a thrilling voice: "Stellory, you said you have something to do in the afternoon, it turns out that you came to the exchange to gamble!" ā€

Duchamp reluctantly touched his forehead with his hand, this voice, who is it not Olivier.

He turned around and found not only Olivier, but also Mura and Learmour.

"The price you let me have a treat to eat blue lobster at noon is to take us to visit an exchange?" Learmour said disappointedly.

"This is the exchange of the Seven Stones, and last time Stellary gambled here a huge Empty Stone, worth tens of millions of meters." Olivier exaggerated the size of the gem.

Lemmour's eyes suddenly glowed with gold. "Steiry, you can pick a rock for me later." He begged.

Duchamp couldn't help laughing: "Last time I picked a stone of more than 2 million meters, I came across such a piece, do you think we still have such luck today?" ā€

As a few people were talking, another surprised voice sounded from the side: "Monsieur Duchamp, what a lucky person to meet you here again." ā€

Councillor Cassel jumped up from the bottom of the stairs with a look of surprise, the surprise on his face was not pretended, he had been looking for Duchamp's traces in the city since yesterday afternoon, and it seemed that he was about to delay the business of the Speaker of the Council, and this dragon-like figure always appeared at a time and place you did not expect.

"This is Speaker Delgado's invitation, and in order to make up for the regret that I didn't let you have a good time last time, the Speaker will hold a banquet on Friday night, and you are specially invited to participate." Councillor Cassel said as he pulled out a formal invitation.

Duchamp smiled and said, "I'm afraid I don't have so much time, and I haven't done anything serious after coming to Julai. ā€

Cassel said mysteriously: "That's why you must be present today, the speaker has invited all the councillors of Julai City, intending to formally discuss trade with Gatapunia, and if the councillors can support it, they can ask the military to remove the checkpoint through a formal meeting." In this way, your problem will be solved. ā€

"Oh, there has been such progress, who are the councillors? Will they agree to protest to the military? ā€

"Of course, of course, all the most influential local councillors were notified by me, and it is no exaggeration to say that their every move is enough to affect the situation in Julai." As he spoke, Councillor Cassel took out a list from his pocket and showed it to Duchamp, who glanced at it and asked, "There won't be any more military people that day?" ā€

"Of course not, it's a gathering of our own people." Councillor Cassel said excitedly. The Speaker of Parliament, who had curled up his tiger teeth since the Governor took office, was finally about to wield his might, and the news spread quickly throughout the Parliament. Although the speaker did not say it explicitly, at this critical juncture, he invited all his confidants to his mansion and invited the envoy of the Gattapunian Lord, and the purpose of this banquet was not obvious.

Cassel was sent by the Speaker to ensure that everyone was invited to attend according to the list. After receiving this errand, based on the vague information revealed by the Speaker, he had basically determined that the Speaker would definitely convene everyone to deny the issue of annexing the mine. As soon as the grapevine spread, almost all the pro-Speaker members were gearing up and ready to respond to the Speaker's call.

He handed the invitation to Duchamp, and pretended to mysteriously pass on the inside information, which had already been told to almost everyone who received the invitation, as exclusive news.

"The Speaker could no longer tolerate the Governor's interference in the affairs of Julai, and the banquet was held at his home, to which almost all the councillors of the city of Julay were invited, and the Speaker was bound to reject the annexation of the mine in one fell swoop. Normal trade routes with Gatapunia are the right of Julai, and you may wish to show your sincerity to the councillors at the banquet and ask for their support. ā€

Clarify sincerity? Duchamp's eyes rolled, and he understood what the so-called sincerity was. He immediately made a list of sincerity: "If the trade between Julai City and the Gatapuniya Territory is normalized through the efforts of the City Council, we guarantee that for at least three years, the grain order from the Lord's House will still be purchased at the price of 7 milas, and you will have full authority to handle this order in Julai City on behalf of the Speaker, and everything will be up to you." ā€

"Refreshing!" Cassel excitedly shook one of Duchamp's hands, "One word is a deal!" It's all up to Friday night. ā€

Having made this promise, Councilor Cassel only felt refreshed and neat, waved his cane, and decided to buy a few ores today to celebrate. As soon as he was happy, he saw that there were a few people next to Duchamp, and said enthusiastically: "The banquet of the speaker has always been a grand event of the upper class of Julai, so please be sure to attend at that time." ā€

Although Liermu and the others did not know what was going on, this was an invitation from the local councilor, so they happily agreed.

"Today's auction is about to start, let's hurry up and get a good spot." Councillor Cassel shouted happily and walked towards the auction hall in high spirits.

After entering the auction hall, there was a lot of people, and the number of people seemed to be more than last time.

It was the first time Lemmor had seen so many gem mines put together, and his eyes were straight.

Councillor Cassel enthusiastically recommended. "Mr. Duchamp, today is a rare opportunity, I would like to recommend you some goods worth buying!"

"Styrity, will you help me pick one?" Learmour looked at the gems and ores in the room and begged in a low voice.

"These are the leftovers I picked up last time, and there are no good goods." Duchamp said disapprehantly.

"There are new arrivals over there, and they haven't been picked yet, so it's a rare opportunity, and I plan to shoot a few pieces today." Cassel pointed to the new goods on the right side of the auction table, and whispered some secrets: "Recently, because of rumors and rumors, Qiyao Stone Mine is not allowed to be auctioned so secretly in the future, and it is necessary to unify the operation, and all mines are competing to auction their own inventory, and the price is relatively low, it is worth starting, and I plan to buy a few today." ā€

And there is such a thing. Duchamp stared at the pile of newly shipped stones for a long time, and said with a smile: "Since the opportunity is rare, which one you like, I will take a bunch of pictures for each of you today, and I will pay for it." ā€
